                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


Note A - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (which are normal and
recurring in nature) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The
results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1998
are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the
entire year.

Note B - Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Westco Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"), its wholly-owned subsidiaries
First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Westchester (the "Association")
and Westco, Inc., the Association's wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Note C - Stock Conversion and Stock Split

On February 13, 1992 the Board of Directors of First Federal Savings and Loan
Association of Westchester approved a plan to convert from a federally chartered
mutual savings association to a federally chartered stock savings association.
The stock conversion plan included, as part of the conversion, the concurrent
formation of a Holding Company. The stock offering of the Association's parent,
Westco Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") was closed on June 25, 1992 with the sale
of 2,300,000 shares at $10.00 per share. The Company purchased all the shares of
stock of the Association for $10,962,363 upon completion of its stock offering.
May 17, 1997 a three for two stock split occurred with fractional shares being
paid in cash.

Note D - Stock Repurchase

Since the June, 1992 conversion, the Company's Board of Directors has approved
seven separate stock repurchase programs. The current stock repurchase program
permits the repurchase of up to 200,000 shares; and, as of July 24, 1998, 54,040
shares remain to be repurchased in the open market.

Note E - Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share are determined by dividing net income for the period by the
weighted average number of both basic and diluted shares of common stock and
common stock equivalents outstanding. Stock options are regarded as common stock
equivalents and are considered in diluted earnings per share calculations.
Common stock equivalents are computed using the treasury stock method. Earnings
per share data for 1997 have been restated for comparative purposes to reflect
the implementation of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128.

                      Management's Discussions and Analysis
                of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources:
- --------- --- ------- ---------

     The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits, proceeds from
principal and interest payments on loans and proceeds from the maturity of
investment securities. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and
investment securities are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and
mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic
conditions and competition from various financial markets. The primary business
activity of the Company, that of making conventional mortgage loans on
residential housing, is likewise affected by economic conditions.

     The Association is required to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets as
defined by OTS regulations. This requirement, which may be varied at the
direction of the OTS depending upon economic conditions and deposit flows, is
based upon a percentage of deposits and short-term borrowings. The required
ratio is currently 4.0%. The Association has historically maintained a high
level of liquid assets. At June 30, 1998, the Association's liquidity ratio was
34.4%.

     The Company maintains a significant part of the assets in overnight
deposits and a portfolio of U.S. Treasury and Agency securities with "laddered"
maturities. This strategy results in a relatively short weighted average
maturity of these assets. At June 30, 1998, these investments totalled $65.0
million, 20.3% of assets, with a weighted average life of approximately 5
months. At December 31, 1997, these investments totalled $64.1 million, or 20.3%
of assets, with a weighted average life of approximately 8 months.

     The Company's most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents. The levels
of these assets are dependent on the Company's operating, financing, lending and
investing activities during any given period. At June 30, 1998, cash and cash
equivalents totalled $24.1 million.

     The primary investing activity of the Company is the origination of
mortgage loans. During the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, the Company
disbursed loans in the amounts of $37.7 million and $31.8 million, respectively.
Other investing activities include the purchase of investment securities, which
totalled $14.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and $15.3 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1997. These activities in 1998 were funded
primarily by principal repayments on loans totalling $34.6 million and
maturities of investment securities totalling $24.8 million. The six month
activity for 1997 was funded by principal repayments on loans and maturities of
investment securities in the amounts of $22.1 million and $27.6 million
respectively.

     At June 30, 1998, the Company had outstanding loan commitments of $11.2
million. At that same date, there were no commitments to purchase loans or
investment securities. The Company anticipates that it will have sufficient
funds available to meet its current loan commitments. Certificates of deposit
which are scheduled to mature in one year or less from June 30, 1998 totalled
$103.0 million. Management believes that a significant portion of such deposits
will remain with the Company.

     The regulatory standards of the Office of Thrift Supervision impose the 
following capital requirements: a risk based capital standard expressed as a
percent of risk based assets, a leverage ratio of core capital to total adjusted
assets, and a tangible capital ratio expressed as a percent of total adjusted

                                      -6-

assets. As of June 30, 1998, the Association exceeded all regulatory capital
standards.

     Capital requirements, ratios and balances are as follows:

                                      Actual    Required  Actual    Excess

CHANGE IN FINANCIAL CONDITION OVER THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998:
- ------ -- --------- --------- ---- --- --- ------ ----- ---- --- ----

     Total assets increased $4.4 million, or 1.4%, during the period to $320.3
million at June 30, 1998 from $315.9 million at December 31, 1997.

     Loans receivable increased $3.4 million, or 1.4%, to $243.5 million from
$240.1 million at December 31, 1997. The increase is primarily a function of 
loan disbursements of $37.7 million offset by amortization and prepayments of
$34.6 million. The growth in loans receivable reflects the continued demand for
most types of loans to either purchase or refinance loans on one- to four-family
residences due to the low interest rate environment. Since the beginning of the
year, the Company has closed $1.9 million in residential construction loans,
$1.1 million in permanent loans on residential property of five or more dwelling
units and $2.6 million in permanent loans on non-residential properties. During
the same period in 1997, the Company closed $2.0 million in construction loans
and $4.5 million in loans on properties having five or more dwelling units, and
$2.5 million on non-residential property.

     Investment securities decreased $9.9 million, or 18.3%, to $44.1 million at
June 30, 1998 as additional funds from maturing investment securities were
invested in overnight investments due to the flat yield curve. Cash and cash
equivalents totalled $24.1 million at June 30, 1998 compared to $14.0 million at
December 31, 1997 reflecting the temporary redeployment.

     Savings deposits increased $823,000, or 0.3%, to $260.4 million at June 30,
1998 from $259.6 million at December 31, 1997. The Company experienced a net
deposit outflow of $5.0 million (before interest credited) for the six month
period ended June 30, 1998.

     The balance of non-performing loans totalled $1.42 million at June 30,
1998, increasing $631,000, or 18.8%, from $786,000 at December 31, 1997. The 
increase is due primarily to the recurring delinquency of a group of
approximately ten loans which fall behind in payments until foreclosure is
threatened or begun at which time the loans are brought current. This
fluctuation has been present in the Company's delinquencies over the past couple
of years. The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans was 0.58% at June 30,
1998 compared to 0.33% at December 31, 1997.

                                      -7-
<PAGE>
 
     Non-performing loans represented all of the Company's non-performing assets
at both June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997. The ratio of non-performing assets
to total assets was 0.44% and 0.25% at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997 
respectively. The Company's allowance for loan losses totalled $902,800, or
63.7% of non-performing loans, at June 30, 1998. Included in this total is a
$277,000 specific loan loss allowance on a 36 unit apartment building having an
outstanding balance of $303,000.

     During 1992, the Association's ESOP borrowed $1,840,000 from an unrelated
third party to fund the Association's ESOP plan which was established in 
connection with the conversion. During 1993, Westco Bancorp, Inc. refinanced
this loan on essentially the same terms as the original lender. The June 30,
1998 balance of $249,000 is eliminated in the consolidation of the Company's
financial statements. At December 31, 1997, the outstanding balance totalled
$373,000.

     Retained earnings increased $1.2 million, or 2.9%, to $42.8 million as a 
result of earnings for the six month period ended June 30, 1998 offset by the
declaration of dividend payments to stockholders during the same period.
Stockholders equity totalled $50.2 million, or 15.7% of total assets at June 30,
1998, and the book value per common share outstanding was $20.18.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AND 
- ---------- -- --------- ------- --- --- ----- ------ ----- ---- --- ---- ---
JUNE 30, 1997:
- ---- --- ----

     Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 1998 decreased $95,000, 8.2%, to
$1.06 million from $1.15 million for the quarter ended June 30, 1997. The
decrease in quarterly earnings resulted from a $168,000 decrease in non-interest
income, including a $169,000 decrease in realized and unrealized gains on
securities held for trading, and a $31,000 increase in non-interest expense.
These changes were partially offset by a $23,000 increase in net interest income
and an $81,000 decrease in income taxes.

     In the quarter ended June 30, 1998 net interest income increased 0.8% to
$2.81 million from $2.79 million for the 1997 quarter. Interest income increased
$152,500 while interest expense increased $130,000. The Company's interest
rate spread averaged 2.80% during the 1998 second quarter, compared to 2.95%
during the 1997 second quarter. The Company's net interest margin averaged 3.62%
for the quarter ended June 30, 1998 compared to 3.71% for the quarter ended June
30, 1997. During the first quarter of 1998, the Company's net interest rate
spread averaged 2.75% and its net interest margin averaged 3.55%.

     During the three months ended June 30, 1998 and June 30, 1997 no additional
provision for loan losses was made based upon (1) the absence of any specific
asset quality problems, (2) the current level of general loan loss reserves, and
(3) management's assessment of the inherent risk in the Company's mortgage
portfolio and possible prospective economic and regulatory conditions.

     Non-interest income for the second quarter of 1998 decreased $168,000 over
the same quarter in 1997 due primarily to a $169,000 decrease in realized and
unrealized gains on investments held for trading. This decrease was partially
offset by a $1,000 increase in other miscellaneous income.

     Non-interest expense increased by $31,000 to $1.28 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 from $1.25 million for the three months ended June
30, 1997. This increase resulted primarily from an $81,000 increase in legal and
consulting fees, a $4,000 increase in franchise taxes, and a $1,000 increase in
data processing costs. These increases were partially offset by a $34,000 de-

crease in staffing costs, a $12,000 decrease in advertising expenses, a $10,000
decrease in office occupancy expense and a $1,000 decrease in FDIC premiums.

     Income tax for the second quarter of 1998 decreased $81,000 as a result of
all of the above.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AND 
- ---------- -- --------- ------- --- --- --- ------ ----- ---- --- ---- --- 
JUNE 30, 1997:
- ---- --- ----

     Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1998 totalled $2.23 million, a
$3,000 increase compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997. 

     During the six months ended June 30, 1998, interest income increased
$291,000 from the year earlier while interest expense increased $258,000. The
Company's net interest margin averaged 3.58% for the six months ended June 30,
1998 and 3.67% for the six months ended June 30, 1997. The Company's interest
rate spread averaged 2.77% during the six months ended June 30, 1998, compared
to 2.90% during the same period in 1997.

     During the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 no additional provision
for loan losses was made based upon the absence of any specific asset quality
problems, the current level of general loan loss reserves and management's
assessment of the inherent risk in the Company's mortgage portfolio and possible
prospective economic and regulatory conditions.

     Non-interest income for the six months of 1998 decreased $48,000 from the
same period in 1997, due to a decrease of $52,000 in the net results of realized
and unrealized gains and losses on investments held for trading, and an decrease
in commissions on sales of insurance and investment products $6,000. These
decreases were offset by increases of $2,000 in loan fees and service charges
and $8,000 in other income.

     Non-interest expense increased $12,000 for the six months ended June 30,
1998 from the level for the six months ended June 30, 1997 primarily as a result
of a $102,000 increase in legal and professional fees, a $4,000 increase in data
processing costs, an $8,000 increase in franchise taxes and a $5,000 increase in
miscellaneous operating expenses. These increases were offset by decreases in
staffing costs, occupancy and equipment costs and advertising expense in the
amounts of $76,000, $19,000 and $12,000 respectively. 

     The provision for income taxes decreased $31,000. The effective tax rate
for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 was 35.8% and 36.3%
respectively.

IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
- ------ -- --- ---------- ---------

     In February 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 132 ("SFAS 132"), "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other
Postretirement Benefits." SFAS 132 alters current disclosure requirements
regarding pensions and other postretirement benefits in the financial statements
of employers who sponsor such benefit plans. The revised disclosure requirements
are designed to provide additional information to assist readers in evaluating
future costs related to such plans. Additionally, the revised disclosures are
designed to provide changes in the components of pension and benefit costs in
addition to the year end components of those factors in the resulting asset or
liability related to such plans. The statement is effective for fiscal years
begining after December 15, 1997 with earlier application available. Management
does not expect SFAS 132 to have a material impact on the Company.

     The foregoing does not constitute a comprehensive summary of all material
changes or developments affecting the manner in which the Company keeps its
books and records and performs its financial accounting responsibilities. It is
intended only as a summary of some of the recent pronouncements made by the FASB
which are of particular interest to financial institutions.

THRIFT RECHARTERING LEGISLATION
- ------ ------------ -----------

     The Deposit Insurance Funds Act provides that the BIF and SAIF will merge
on January 1, 1999 if there are no more savings associations as of that date.
Congress is currently considering legislation which addresses this issue as well
as others which deal with the modernization of the banking industry. Management
cannot predict whether such legislation will be enacted or the extent to which
any legislation would affect the Company's operations.

YEAR 2000 ANALYSIS 
- ---- ---- --------

     The Company, including its subsidiaries, does not own or use proprietary
software. The Association has a contract with NCR Corporation for data
processing services on savings and loan accounts, and NCR has assured the
Company that all systems will be Year 2000 Compliant by mid-1999. Vendors
supplying software for other internal uses have made the same assurance. OTS has
recently performed an interim exam regarding this issue during the second
quarter of 1998.

     Management does not expect the total cost for its internal systems to
become Year 2000 compliant to be significant.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     The Company's financial instrument assets and liabilities are subject to
varying degrees of actual or theoretical market risk. The only significant 
exposure of these instruments results from the interest rate risk embedded in
them based upon their contractual terms.

     As of March 31, 1998, the latest date available, an OTS analysis of the
Association's estimated interest rate risk, as measured by changes in the Net 
Portfolio Value of the Association's financial assets and liabilities for
instantaneous and sustained parallel shifts in interest rates, indicated that
the Net Portfolio Value would decrease 13% and 30% for 200 and 400 basis point
increases in interest rates respectively, compared to 14% and 31% respectively
for the previous quarter, and increase 5% and 11% for 200 and 400 basis point
decreases interest rates respectively, compared to 6% and 12% respectively for
the previous quarter.

     The Board of Directors has established parameters for monitoring the
Association's interest rate risk.
